Is there a way to identify the phrases and pages involved in your URLS receiving search visits?
-
Our client seems to get 20 - 30 visits a month to pages which people arrived on via a search, without visiting home page and navigating there.
Is there a way we can identify both the phrases the person used to arrive at the page, and the page itself? The graph is tantalizing, but without deeper insight into what the phrases and pages were, we can't focus on the phrases in question. And we'd like to do this, because the phrase may represent potential long tail phrases we could use.
Thanks!
Eric.

Hi Eric,
Yes, there is definitely a way to determine what pages your visitors are landing on and what search term they used to find it. I'm going to assume you are using the new version of Google Analytics.
- Login to your respective Account and Profile
- Go to Traffic Sources > Sources > Search > Organic
- This view will display phrases from search engines
- Under the graph there should be an option that states "Secondary Dimensions" 5) Click that then search for "Landing Page"
A new column should show up and give you the answer to your question.
I hope that helps!

Does it make sense to pursue long-tail keywords with low search volume
Hi Moz community, I need your insight into what would ensure better rankings. Some of the pages that I am optimizing are dedicated to niche products targeting specific verticals and the main keywords have really low average search volume (below 50). I'll give you an example (these are not the exact keywords, just an example to illustrate my dilemma): if my long-tail keyword is "student information management software" with search volume of 20, when do I stand better chances to gain search visibility: by optimizing the page for this long-tail keyword and incorporating it in the title tag, or by pursuing more generic keywords with higher search volume: "student" and "information management software"? If I am targeting short-tail keywords, will the page also rank for long-tail searches that are a combination of these keywords? In other words, which scenario gives better chances to rank higher: 1) pursuing short-tail keywords with high search volume in the title-tag 2) pursuing fewer long-tail keywords with lower search volume that are a combination of those in scenario 1? Thanks in advance for your help!

Description in the snippet varies from search to search.. Have you seen that?
Hi everyone. I'm noticing that when searching the same web, but from different queries the description shown in the snippet is different.

I've attached 2 images to clarify this topic.
Searches done:
1) https://www.google.com.ar/search?q=http://www.dawebrokers.com/
2) https://www.google.com.ar/search?q=http://www.dawebrokers.com/testimonios Also, I do know that google indexes the text from description that seems more accurate for the search. But, I've understood that the text should be the same on every search.
Can anyone enlighten me in this subject?
I'm starting to believe that it's becoming useless the meta description Thanks!

Our page authority has dropped to 1
We updated some pages to try to improve our site. We kept the same URLs and changed the page title and meta description to target specific key words. Our page authority has dropped to 1. This is one of the pages http://www.fashionably-yours.com.au/wedding-dresses/ What have we done wrong?

G's Keyword Planner - 800 kw limit on search volume results?
I'm trying to use Google's Keyword Planner to pull the search volume for a large list of keywords (2000+). While you're able to upload a CSV of up to 3000 keywords, the search volume search only returns a maximum of 800 keywords per query, which is an issue as I have no idea which keywords it's cutting out. Is there any way around this? I have looked around online, but haven't been able to find a solid solution. Thanks in advance!

2 almost identical key-phrases with opposite ranking trajectories
I recently checked rank-tracking of a client's search-phrases. In Google UK variations of 2 almost identical search phrases dropped 30 places for one of these and jumped 30 places for the other. The only difference between the 2 phrases being the site's location (city) was placed first in phrase A and last in Phrase B. There were no technical or content changes on-site- How can this be?
